Shopify NY is located at 131 Greene Street New York, NY and is a space where local entrepreneurs can have events like inspiring speakers, pop-ups, and more.
On Saturday, July 27, 2024 and Sunday, July 28, 2024, Woobles used the space for The Woobles Birthday Bash. My friend and I arrived around 10:50am (doors open at 11am) and waited on line for about 3 1/2 hours before entering the building. The line wrapped around for blocks. Only 60-65 people were let into the building at a time.
There are two floors. On the first floor, we passed by a display of all the woobles kits and crochet hooks, designed our own Wooble and received a FREE exclusive Woobles kit, snapped a picture at the photobooth with props, took a picture with their mascot Pierre the Penguin, and I met Chief Woobler Justine Tiu. This floor also has a café. The lower level had games set up like cornhole, ring toss, spin while balancing a wooble on a spoon without dropping it, and a claw machine filled with adorable accessory kits. There are staircases and elevator access to the lower level. The restrooms are located on the lower level. There were no items for purchase.
This is a great venue for events like this. It did feel crowded when we were all held on the first floor waiting to go downstairs, but the Woobles staff were very organized and kept people moving. They used the space adequately.
